“We definitely shot the ball better, which was encouraging,” FGCU coach Karl Smesko said. “When we move the ball and get the types of looks that we want, we can be a good-shooting team. The times that we moved it today, I thought we made a good percentage of our threes. That was probably the biggest difference in the game today. They got a lot of good looks, but they were going in-out.”

It was the seventh consecutive win for FGCU, which has never lost to Lipscomb and leads the series 19-0. The two teams meet again on Feb. 13 in Fort Myers.
